Chapter 862: Defying Heaven

hook her head. She knew that Heaven had allowed her to be reborn, and many things she couldn't speak aloud. Otherwise, she would have told Qian Ting Xuan long ago: “I want revenge, so I am destined to..."Junior Brother, everything has its destined course. It's too early to draw a conclusion now." Master Kong seemed remarkably calm despite the situation.

I don't care, if this lifetime still can't fulfill my apprentice, then I will play even crazier than my younger brother! The old man, full of righteousness, puffed out his beard. He loved his apprentices in both lifetimes, no one could bully them, not even Heaven!

“Well, well, well. This old monk finally understands why Master repeatedly urged me to keep a close eye on you all before his passing. It turns out each and every one of you are lunatics, while only this old monk is the sane one!” Kongjian Master's rarely seen emotion was evident.

“Brother, you’ve taken my eldest apprentice, now I only have this youngest one left. If anything happens to her, I’ll be left with no apprentices. I’ve lived to my age, do you expect me to find a new apprentice Besides, where can I even find apprentices as good as mine” The usually stern Wu Hui looked like his younger self arguing with his brother-master right now.

Mentioning this, Kong Jian, the master, lightly coughed twice as if to cover it up: "Well, second disciple, fortunately, Xiao Ming has quite a high aptitude. As my senior brother, I also need someone to inherit my martial arts. As for your mantle, your apprentice's aptitude is even better. Even daring to practice the Life and Death Secret Art, that little madman would be perfect to inherit your mantle."

"Brother, do I have to expose you Didn't you secretly pass down the martial arts to my disciple" So he was the master of both disciples for his brother.

"Well, you see, the old monk was just worried about being overwhelmed by the backlash of the Life and Death Art." He sighed inwardly, rubbing his forehead: "Why didn't I have such good fortune as my second disciple To have two obedient disciples at once."

The elderly man grunted twice, turning his head away, not believing a word.

"Well, second disciple, it's almost time, we should go down the mountain. Otherwise, your little apprentice might really be taken advantage of by the younger disciple." After saying that, Kongjian walked towards the third disciple with large strides.

"He dares! If he dares to touch my apprentice a single hair, I'll strip him bare!"

Two reclusive figures, seen as paragons of wisdom by outsiders, were bickering like children. Unless one had witnessed it firsthand, no one would believe it.

Xiao Yu Ge was blindfolded and didn't know how long she had been walking before arriving in a confined space. She tried to gently tap the floor with her feet, as if there were an echo. Could this be inside a cave

The deeper she went, the more she felt a bone-chilling cold. Even though it was summer outside and scorching hot, here it was frigidly cold. If her guess was right, this must be the legendary Ice Cave.

"Master, someone is here!" Ah Yi pushed Xiao Yu Ge forward.

"Alright, take her to the center of the altar!" The strange voice of the Grand Mage echoed.

“Hold on!” Xiao Yuge called out, her arms suddenly shaking. The ropes that bound her snapped with a sound. Although her hands were tied behind her back, she could easily break free from these simple restraints. She had allowed herself to be bound before because she was afraid they would hurt Qing Luo. Now that the culprit had been found, she no longer needed to endure it.

Quickly taking off the cloth strip bound over his eyes, he had been in darkness for so long that the sudden brightness was blinding. His vision swam white for a moment.

She subconsciously rubbed her eyes, trying to quickly adjust to the bright light before her. Sure enough, she saw the national teacher not far away!

"It's really you!" Seeing the National Teacher, Xiao Yuge's eyes were about to burst into flames. His mother's death was inextricably linked to him, and now he had kidnapped Qingluo, which was simply unforgivable.

"Guardian Princess, I didn't expect your injuries to be so severe. You recovered so quickly!" The Grand Tutor thought Xiao Yuge's injuries were so serious that even with the Crane God Doctor by her side, it wouldn't be possible for her to recover this quickly. At least his own injury hadn't fully recovered yet, all thanks to her.

"Grand Master, you're not dead, how could I possibly not recover quickly" Xiao Yuge looked up at him and asked coldly, "Where is Qingluo Where did you take my Qingluo"

The national master coughed lightly twice, his emaciated fingers pointed at the back of Xiao Yu Ge: “Why doesn’t the county princess look back”

Xiao Yu's singing reached her ears, and she suddenly turned back. Even though she had seen many bloody scenes before, she was stunned, even feeling nauseous to the point of goosebumps.

Originally, below was a pool of blood. In the pool lay a pale and lifeless woman, seemingly dead for quite some time. Above the pool of blood hung a lamp giving off a faint light, resembling the shape of seven stars opening.

Beside the blood pool, in the five directions of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, stood a stone pillar. On each pillar, red paint was used to write "Life Calamity," "Heavenly Calamity," "Fortune," "Male," and "Female." Each pillar had a person bound to it. Qian Yi'an corresponded to Life Calamity, Xiao Yu-fu corresponded to Heavenly Calamity, and the pillar of Fortune was empty, presumably for her.

On the pillar marked as male, there were actually three infants still in their swaddling clothes. On the pillar marked as female, besides two infants also in their swaddling clothes, there was also Qing Luo who had already fainted. Beside Qing Luo, on a large stone chair sat Ye Lin, oh no, it should be said that she was the real Lu Xiangwan. In front of her lay a fist-sized bead emitting a black and green glow, it must be the Dragon Gall Bead!

Although she didn't understand formations, Xiao Yuge only needed one glance to figure out what kind of sinister formation this was.

At this moment, everyone had fainted, but each person's wrist was pierced by a thin hollow vine that extended to the blood woman's left and right wrists.

Xiao Yu Ge just glanced at it and understood, he couldn't help but be shocked: This should be the blood transfusion mentioned in Master's medical book, using so many people to give blood to a woman, is it going to burst her

I don't know how long this has been going on, but Qing Luo and the others already look very pale.

"Qing Luo!" Xiao Yu Ge naturally wouldn't stand by and watch Qing Luo bleed to death. Reincarnating once, she wouldn't allow Qing Luo to endure such pain again. So, without hesitation, she jumped forward, wanting to save Qing Luo.

But when she rushed over, she was bounced back by an inexplicable force. Before she could land, the next second, her body flew up uncontrollably, as if something in the evil formation was controlling her. In the blink of an eye, she was sucked onto the stone pillar inscribed with "Qiyun". Before she could react, the iron chains on the surface of the pillar automatically wrapped around and locked her limbs!

"Damn it!" Xiao Yuge didn't expect that with her own martial arts, she wouldn't be able to break this formation. It seemed she had overestimated herself. She originally intended to use herself as bait. As long as she entered here and knew the Grand Tutor's intentions, she would act accordingly. Unexpectedly, she fell for the Grand Tutor's trap.e eyes sparkling as they met his eager gaze. Her rosy lips moved, and a soft voice, unbidden, escaped her throat: "Brother—"His eyes widened in disbelief, as if he couldn't quite believe what he was h...
